Departing from Cotswold Airport (EGBP), the Piper PA28-236 Dakota began its takeoff roll on runway 26, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 65 kt in a distance of 310 m, which represented 19% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 15 °C and a light wind of 1 kt from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind component.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated a high degree of agility, completing the pattern entry in less than 1 nm in 18 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn was executed with equal precision, taking 20 seconds to complete. The pilot then initiated a downwind turn, which required a distance of 1 nm and an angle of 82.0° to the runway. Following this, the aircraft proceeded to the downwind leg, covering a distance of 2 nm in 55 seconds. The base leg turn was then executed, with the aircraft turning through an angle of 44.6° to the runway. The final approach to runway 26 was made from the east, with the aircraft descending to an altitude of 196 ft agl at a heading of 259.0°.

The landing was executed with precision, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 55 kt and a touchdown rate of -10 fpm. The total landing distance was 598 m, representing 37% of the available runway length.
